Abstract

Understanding the sources of legitimacy within a state will enable those engaging in stabilization activities (Stabilizers) to identify what sort of alternative governance structures are likely to arise when the state does not have the trust of the population and how and whether to counter, coopt, or cooperate with them. Foreknowledge and situational understanding are likely to go a long way to reduce this tendency toward false promises, thus increasing the Stabilizer’s and the sovereign’s legitimacy before and after action and thus its likelihood of establishing long-term stability.

Although Joint Doctrine Publication 3-07 Stabilization, p. 141, August 2016 states, “Many of the stability transitions cut across the political and functional areas. Planners should not consider these duties in isolation but be consistently cognizant of the possible effects their actions can have across both areas. This requires insight into the cultures of the HN, support from intelligence sources, collaboration with interorganizational stakeholders, and a thorough understanding of the desired political outcomes of the transition.” Few commanders are truly equipped to develop these insights and recognition of the importance of the strategic objectives and how they relate to each engagement and mission task.

This common “mission accomplished, move on to the next objective,” mindset within the military is contrastable with the long-term relationships generally built by special operations force units in AFG and elsewhere. This relationship pertaining to insurgencies is discussed in detail in LTC Joseph Long “Framing Indigenous Leadership,” Advances in Social Sciences Research Journal, Vol. 4, No. 6, March 25, 2017.

While typically attributed to David Kilcullen, this term actually originated with Bernard B. Fall, “The Theory and Practice of Insurgency and Counterinsurgency.” Naval War College Review, Winter 1998, who noted “But the “kill” aspect, the military aspect, definitely always remained the minor aspect. The political, administrative, ideological aspect is the primary aspect. Everybody, of course, by definition, will seek a military solution to the insurgency problem, whereas by its very nature, the insurgency problem is military only in a secondary sense, and political, ideological, and administrative in a primary sense. Once we understand this, we will understand more of what is actually going on in Viet-Nam or in some of the other places affected by RW [revolutionary warfare].”
